Great app for the low price!I downloaded Rocket Math for an elementary math methods class at my college, and it was my favorite of all the apps I looked at. For such a low price of $0.99, it is packed full of different missions and activities for students to do! This app could be used with students from around age 5 or 6 to even age 12. This customizability is something that I really like about Rocket Math. The games are fun and engaging while still educational. Also, the game is fast-paced, but it is not stressful to play. I also like how you can repeat each level multiple times to try for a better score, because it encourages and rewards improvement in an appropriate way.
Although I would definitely recommend this app to other teachers, there are a few modifications that I would suggest. First, there needs to be a tutorial of some sort, because it is confusing to know what to do when you open the app for the first time. It would also be helpful to include steps on how to build a rocket and what the pieces are on the build-a-rocket screen. I had to resort to using the sample rocket, because I did not know that you needed to add those pieces to the rocket to make it run.

Very fun math appMy kids think it is great fun. The 5th grader is using it to review math facts. Also i am using it to help a boy in my sons class who was adopted from The Ukraine learn some math in a fun way. Definitely worth the paid version.

The kid gets his video game fix!This is as close to playing video games as our family comes, and my seven year-old loves the app. The creators were smart, allowing players to design their rockets and add on pieces as they win levels. There are multiple levels, so the game can keep changing even though the premise is the same - click as many of the right answers as possible while flying through space, and they range from early elementary basics to more challenging math, so the app grows with my son's learning. Very happy that the creators really understand kids.

Math hater to math addict in 5 minutesMy 9 year old who has Attention Deficit Disorder and who struggles with math, went from being a math hater to a math addict in 5 minutes of playing this game. This game should be used in every school I'm America!
